A marker for cases which have been involved with in-home services for
youth/family. An ever question.
MEASURE: Services and Medications
Participation in both residential and community-based social services is assessed
through a modified version of the Child and Adolescent Services Assessment (CASA;
Burns, et al., 1992). At the baseline interview, subjects are asked if they have
received services in a range of settings (e.g., alcohol/drug treatment, psychiatric
treatment, hospitalizations, foster care, family counseling, detention /prison /
jail stays, priest/minister/clergy visitations) across both the juvenile justice and
the mental health sector. A history of medication use is also obtained (medication
name and recency of last dose). Once endorsed, follow-up questions obtain the age at
the initial receipt of the treatment and the recency of this service use.
